Chapter 118 [Emperor and family, who has stronger wrists? 】

...

But Wang Lingyun left the envoy courtyard all the way, and suddenly a servant ran over in a panic and said hurriedly: "Mr. Wang, you almost killed me. There is only one stick of incense to deliver meals. You have now exceeded your time."

Wang Lingyun's eyes sterned and asked in a deep voice: "Can anyone pay attention?"

The servant shook his head quickly and whispered: "I hide it very well."

Wang Lingyun immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The servant said again: "But Baiqisi is very careful and asks me before and after every meal."

Wang Lingyun nodded, he quickly took off his clothes outside, and then lowered his voice to the servant and told him: "You go and reply now, remember not to show panic. I am an official from the Honglu Temple. I have never delivered food for you, and you have never spoken to me."

The servant hurriedly put on his clothes and ran along the yard.

Wang Lingyun took a deep breath, then a faint smile appeared on his face.

He walked slowly with his hands behind his back and headed straight to the official room of Honglu Temple. He first drew a stroke on the book of dots and joked with a few minor officials who also dots and didts. Then he went out and returned to Wang's family along the Zhuque Street.

All of this was extremely ordinary, as if he had never pretended to be a servant.

Since ancient times, the robbery of the prisoners is the most difficult to detect. Even if the Hundred Cavalry Office is stationed in the Honglu Temple, who would have thought that the inner thief came out of the temple?

This seemed to be a missed by Baiqisi. They did not send anyone to stare at the envoy's door, otherwise Wang Lingyun would never have been able to get the opportunity. No matter how powerful Wang's ability is, he would not be able to buy the servant.

Everything is perfect, and secrets will always be secrets.

When Wang Lingyun returned to the Wang Mansion, a faint smile even appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that the servant of Honglu Temple was also smiling.

At this time, there were seven or eight hundred cavalry officers in front of the servant, and one of them rolled in his eyes and said, "You must confirm this matter. Has he really talked to the Turkic envoy?"

The servant Zheng pointed his head and said seriously: "A full stick of incense was said, and he said a lot. He thought he had bribed me, so he didn't pay much attention when he spoke. I hid at the door of the yard and eavesdropped, and I heard everything."

"Hahaha!"

Several hundred riders were immediately ecstatic. The man pointed at the servant and said, "You are so happy, you have made a contribution this time. We brothers will benefit from it. Your Majesty will definitely give you a great reward this time."

The servant grinned.

Everyone said hurriedly: "Clearn it up quickly. Let's enter the palace urgently. You report everything you hear to Your Majesty. It is not a good thing for Turkic envoys to contact aristocratic families. Shut up, don't say it now, and we don't listen. You only tell your Majesty about this matter, and no one of us can listen. If a third person knows, all of us will die."

The servant was about to show off a few words, but when he heard this, he quickly closed his mouth, as if he was still a little worried, and then covered his mouth with both hands.

Several hundred cavalry officials nodded and then pulled him out of the Honglu Temple.

All of this is perfect.

Li Shimin and the aristocratic family secretly touched each other, and now it seems that the emperor won.

Unfortunately, Wang Lingyun didn’t know!

...

After returning to the Wang family mansion, this person went straight to the courtyard of the patriarch of the back house, but saw Wang Gui, the patriarch of the Wang family in Taiyuan, waiting for him. This old guy had an old face with a smile and was free and leisurely.

Wang Lingyun stepped forward and saluted respectfully, and said in a deep voice: "Grandfather, things are done."

Wang Gui laughed and nodded lightly, "I will know that things have been done when I see you happy. Lingyun Wusun, you have done a good job..."

Wang Lingyun nodded, suddenly he stopped talking. He pondered for a moment, and then he spoke solemnly: "Lingyun has something unknown, why do you want to use such a method?"

Wang Gui still laughed and asked back, "Which method are you referring to?"

Wang Lingyun's eyes flashed and he said word by word: "It will harm the public and benefit the private sector, and it will be accused of eternal reputation."

After saying these eight words, he immediately said: "When dealing with the Turks, it can certainly keep the family safe, but there are so many smart people in the world. It will be difficult to block the long-lasting mouth when the annual payment is reached. My family has always focused on business reputation. Wouldn't this move bring yourself a stigma for eternity?"

Wang Gui smiled but did not answer, but just looked at him silently.

Wang Lingyun looked straight at his grandfather, as if he had to get the answer.

The grandparents and grandson looked at each other for a long time, and finally Wang Gui slowly stood up. The smile on the old man's face disappeared, and turned into extremely serious and deep, but his tone was still very plain. He only heard him say, "Good grandson, you are still too young. The so-called leisurely mouth never needs to be blocked. The so-called infamous for the ages will never be published in history books."

Wang Lingyun's eyes flashed lightly.

Wang Gui looked at him with great meaning and taught him: "Seventy years ago, the Five Barbarians invaded China, and the Central Plains were killed into white land, but the aristocratic families were saved. At that time, there were many curses, saying that the aristocratic families were as cruel as wild dogs. However, now, who remembers that the Central Plains was easily invaded by the Five Barbarians because of us. If it weren't for the aristocratic families to coerce the court to move south, how could the Central Plains be so easily killed into white land? Grandson, history books are in the pen of the aristocratic families..."

Wang Lingyun thought about something.

Wang Gui smiled twice, and then said: "Thirty years ago, Emperor Yang of Sui and his family collapsed. The emperor wanted to weaken the family and the family wanted to continue to grow. Therefore, Emperor Yang of Sui became a tyrant. Therefore, the people in the world became a tyrant. He conquered Goryeo three times, and we were able to retreat. He recruited the people and was the food we deducted. Therefore, the people would not have enough food, so the rebel kings flocked to the crowd. We did the bad things, but Emperor Yang of Sui became a tyrant..."

Wang Lingyun's mind was shaking.

Wang Gui looked at him again and continued: "Nine years ago, the Tang Dynasty was established. The reason why the Li family in Longyou became a royal family was because they reached a tacit understanding with us to rule the world together. Therefore, they became royal family and the masters of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers. However, this master was on the surface, while the aristocratic family was secretly. This rule has been this for thousands of years."

Wang Lingyun couldn't help but say, "Since you have reached a tacit understanding, why are you now secretly dragging you down?"

Wang Gui sighed and suddenly said with hatred: "Because Li Jiancheng is dead!"

Wang Lingyun was slightly stunned.

But when the old guy looked at the sky with his hands behind his back, he seemed to tell his grandson some secrets, and said quietly: "When Li's battle for the world, Li Jiancheng was responsible for contacting various aristocratic families. We provided the Li family with food and wealth, and Li used it to compete for the country. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng was the prince supported by the aristocratic family. If he could ascend the throne, the aristocratic family would grow even stronger."

Wang Lingyun murmured, took a deep breath and said, "It's a pity that the Xuanwu Gate Incident five months ago."

"good!"

Wang Gui's eyes were swelling, his voice became cold, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Li Shimin is definitely a talented and stubborn hero. He wants to break the tacit understanding that has been around for thousands of years and make the aristocratic family no longer able to share the world with the royal family."

Wang Lingyun finally understood and said in a deep voice: "So we must take advantage of the Turkic invasion to shake the foundation and foundation of the Tang Dynasty as much as possible. To provide millions of stones of food per year, the court must increase taxes. If the annual supply lasts for more than three years, the Tang Dynasty will inevitably have hungry people rising up."

“That’s exactly that!”

Wang Gui's voice became colder and his eyes were stern: "Li Shimin will be the next Emperor Yang of Sui."

The old guy suddenly glanced at Wang Lingyun and said, "You kept asking me why I suddenly retreated in front of the Cheng Mansion that day. Today I will tell you the answer, that Li Yun's identity is not simple."

Wang Lingyun's heart moved, and a young man instantly appeared in his mind.

In front of the gate of the Richeng Mansion, the young man held up a giant coffin with one hand, roared to the sky, and flew out of the air. The posture of the overlord holding the tripod became an unforgettable shadow for him.

At this time, he heard that his grandfather wanted to tell the answer, he took a deep breath and said hurriedly: "My grandson has always not understood why you hinted me to retreat that day..."

...

"Because he is Li Shimin's illegitimate son!"

Wang Gui opened his mouth and immediately shocked Wang Lingyun on the spot.

After a long time, Wang Lingyun said in surprise: "Grandfather's words are serious?"

Wang Gui nodded with a serious expression: "You are still young now, so you have never met Li Shimin. If you have met Li Shimin, you will find that Li Yun's appearance is very similar to him."

As he said, he pondered for a while, and then said: "There was one more similar person, but that person disappeared at a young age, and he had never married and had no children left. Therefore, I and others would calculate that Li Yun must be Li Shimin's descendant."

Wang Lingyun took a deep breath, but still couldn't control the shock in his heart, and murmured: "Li Yun is actually the emperor's illegitimate son."

The old man Wang Gui nodded and said with a 'deep wisdom': "That day we were shocked to see his face, and I suddenly thought that this was the emperor causing trouble in secret. Li Shimin threw out his illegitimate son to fight us. Major families must be cautious. We retreated that day, not because we were afraid of Li Yun's natural divine power, but because Li Shimin hoped that we would kill his child."

Wang Lingyun was stunned and said in surprise: "You said the emperor is looking forward to us killing his parents and children?"

Wang Gui's eyes flashed and said sternly: "In order to win, Li Shimin is willing to do anything. I guess this is the emperor's plan, and he deliberately used the life of his illegitimate son as a bargaining chip. If we are deceived, the emperor will ask for compensation from the aristocratic family. Think about it, how much is a prince worth? I'm afraid that Li Shimin will have to eat 30% of the aristocratic family's wealth before he deserves his ruthless personality."

Wang Lingyun took a deep breath again and suddenly realized that he was too far apart from these older generations. He always regarded himself as a wise man, and then he felt very ridiculous.

Fortunately, Wang Gui was training him, so he was disappointed not to perform.

The grandparents and grandchildren were still waiting to speak, but suddenly heard someone speak at the door and asked respectfully: "The patriarch is ready, the time is coming soon."

This question was so mindless, but Wang Gui nodded.

The old guy suddenly smiled and handed his hand to Wang Lingyun, his face made a weak and exhausted gesture, and said with a deep meaning: "My grandfather was old and weak. He felt a cold last night. However, as an important minister of the Tang Dynasty, he could not recite his illness and cultivate his family. In desperation, he had to let his grandson help him..."

Wang Lingyun's eyes flashed and he blurted out: "You are making excuses to let me attend the state banquet."

He is still accumulating promotions at the Honglu Temple, and his official position is very small and he is not qualified to attend a state banquet.

Wang Gui smiled and stroked his beards slowly and said, "There will be a storm tonight's national banquet. My grandson is a younger generation of handsome men. You should show your strength."

Wang Lingyun took a deep breath, his eyes looking forward to it.

A young man suddenly appeared in front of him. I wonder if that young man will participate tonight?

That was Li Shimin's illegitimate son. Wang Lingyun really wanted to compete with him for the edge.
